“Morgan was amazing with our crazy crew. Even the shy difficult ones warmed up to her very quickly. She really went out of her way to take the best possible care of our pets. We’ve already booked her for our next trip!”

“Katie was excellent with our fur babies! She was kind, caring, and responsible. During her stay, she kept us informed with text and photo updates. Our oldest dog requires insulin injections and eye drops. Katie didn’t have any issues with that and did so with care. We will most definitely be using her again!”

“Laura treated our dogs well. She sent us pictures thru ought the weekend which was nice. And they seemed very happy when we got home. Plus she was an excellent house guest by washing the sheets and towels before we got home.”

“She had to reschedule the meet and greet last minute due to emergency but was able to make up for it the next day. Kiki seemed to warm up to her pretty fast. Meet and greet went well.”


“Angelee was great and took really good care of our pups. She kept us updated and sent plenty of pictures of them having fun outside. We will definitely be using her again.”

“Stephanie is the best pet sitter we've ever had! She went above and beyond when one of our dogs had a medical situation and likely saved his life. Calm, pleasant, super responsive to calls and texts both! The house was immaculate and our other pups and kitties super calm and happy. Really caring! We can't thank her enough, and will surely invite her back. Fenway, Scooter and Sally say "4 paws up!"”

“Brooke did an excellent job house & pet sitting our pup, Forrest. She’s very attentive and kept us updated very well. We would definitely recommend her to anyone needing a great pet & house sitter.”

“Olivia took great care of our three dogs and an axolotl. She stayed at our house and was a very considerate guest leaving the house clean upon her departure. She was very easy to work with. I can’t be more happier with my decision to hire her to watch after our dogs. I highly recommend her.”

“Lael was just awesome!! We were in a pickle as our normal dog sitter cancelled on us at the last minute and my husband and I were going out of town. My husband found Rover.com and Lael’s profile and reviews grabbed our attention. I was nervous about leaving our fur babies with someone we had just met, but Lael immediately put our mind at ease! She was sending us pictures and updates before our flight left!. She is an absolute angel and we will definitely use her again and again!!”

“Audrey did an incredible job taking care of our dog and cat! She sent regular updates and I was always assured that our pets were in great hands. We came home to the house just as we left it and the animals as happy as ever.”

“Lilli was super sweet, listened to all our many requests, and our pups loved her! We booked somewhat last minute because of a day trip, and she made us feel very comfortable with leaving our pups in her care. Will book again! Thank you Lilli!”

About: We love dogs! We are called first when any of our friends go out of town. We have cared for dogs of all sizes and ages from older doxies to young mutts and we love large rotties too. We are also okay with special needs dogs and we make sure your dog gets their medications when scheduled. Our lab loves to make new friends with dogs of all sizes. We have a nice privacy fenced in back yard with a kiddie pool to help the dogs keep cool during the summer even though they will spend most of the time inside. Please know that if your pup stays with us he or she will be treated like a part of the family. We love dogs! I help my Dad on his farm only when I'm not scheduled to care for a pup I'm hosting. I'm free to stay at home all day with your pet. I always keep an eye on what's going on. I'm usually outside if our pups are. If I'm watching a pet at your home, I don't make messes.
“Paige was wonderful! Our dogs were loved on and spoiled. She was great at communicating and sending photos and I could see how happy the pups were. One of my pups was even missing her when we got back!”

About: I have been around family pets from the age of 5 years old. At 17, I raised my own dog from a puppy as well as participated in obedience training up to the advanced level. I have worked with dogs of various breeds and sizes through house sitting and volunteering, and I have experience with dogs of all ages from newborn puppies to senior dogs. I have also had pet cats and enjoy caring for them and their needs. PLEASE NOTE: New clients must book a minimum of 5 nights for the first stay. My job allows me to work fully remote, meaning that my place of work allows me to be flexible for extended stays as well as have pauses throughout each day for the ideal at-home pet care schedule. I strive to maintain a routine as close to each pet's home life as possible. I set clear and simple boundaries for clients' pets that reflect those of their owner and allow them to feel at home with me as their sitter.
“Bree went above and beyond for our three animals and our house. Everything felt clean and fresh when we got home, which is an ultimate luxury after being away for several days. Genuinely the best person I've booked on Rover. Bree gave lots of updates and had great questions before and during her stay. Can't wait to book her again!”

“Samantha was truly exceptional and went above and beyond in every possible way. From the very beginning, her communication was clear, prompt, and reassuring, which immediately put us at ease. While we were away, she treated our home and pets as if they were her own, showing an incredible level of care, responsibility, and attention to detail. She kept us regularly updated with thoughtful messages and photos, handled everything seamlessly, and even took care of extra things we didn’t expect or ask for. It was clear that she genuinely cares and takes pride in what she does. We came home to happy, well-cared-for pets and a spotless house—honestly better than we left it. If you’re looking for someone you can completely trust, Samantha is it. We couldn’t have asked for a better house sitter and will absolutely be booking her again. Highly, highly recommend!”

“I have two large, high energy dogs, and one of them pulls really bad on a leash. She did amazing and sent me so many pictures, I knew they were safe in her care!”
